Mamaroneck Village, New York

Population: 18,752
Located in Westchester County

Originally the farming community of Mamaroneck was located on two sides of the Mamaroneck River. In the 1890s, the two areas surrounding the river were joined into one commercial village, Mamaroneck, which was incorporated in 1895. One side of the village lies in the town of Rye and is known as Rye Neck. Some controversy surrounded the incorporation of the village, but the State Appellate Court approved the village's election status. The population of Mamaroneck village in 1895 was 1,500 .

Like its neighboring village of Larchmont, Mamaroneck was at one time the location of summer residences for wealthy families from New York City. Summer residence neighborhoods included Greenhaven, Orienta and Shore Acres. The local railroad from New York City (now Metro North), with continuing service to Connecticut, began to service the village in 1848. Currently the village of Mamaroneck is primarily a bedroom community for commuters to Manhattan. A major harbor on the Long Island Sound supports facilities for pleasure boating. The harbor also contains a large park with sporting facilities.

The main commercial streets in Mamaroneck are now the Boston Post Road (Route 1) and Mamaroneck Avenue. Local industry is centered around the Fenimore Road area.

Other areas of the town include Heathcote Hill overlooking the harbor, Harbor Heights to the northeast, Old Rye Neck (settled in the 1880s), Rye Neck (settled in the 1920s and 1930s) and the Washingtonville area, also known as "The Flats" due to its being surrounded by higher ground.
